Project description:A progressive trajectory toward renal failure is common in patients with Alport syndrome. Genotype-phenotype correlations have been well described; however, the natural history of the trajectory toward renal failure is not well described.The objective of this study is to describe the natural history of renal function decline in a cohort of Alport syndrome patients.Retrospective observational cohort study.British Columbia, Canada, chronic renal disease registry 1995-2012.37 biopsy proven Alport syndrome or hematuria with family history of Alport syndrome.Serial estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) Trajectory of renal decline described graphically by fitting a cubic smoothing spline to patient's eGFR measures. Various time points within a trajectory were indexed, randomly sampled, and followed for 2 years to estimate portion of progressors (>5 mL/min/1.73 m2 /y decline), stable state (0-2 mL/min/1.73 m2 /y decline), and regressors (>2 mL/min/1.73 m2 /y incline).In this retrospective observational cohort study, participants were identified through a chronic renal disease registry in British Columbia, Canada, from 1995 to 2012. Inclusion criteria were biopsy proven or hematuria with a family history of Alport syndrome. Individual patients and family group members were studied. Trajectory of renal decline described graphically by fitting a cubic smoothing spline to patient's serial estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) measures. Various time points within a trajectory were indexed, randomly sampled, and followed for 2 years to estimate portion of progressors (>5 mL/min/1.73 m2/y decline), stable state (0-2 mL/min/1.73 m2/y decline), and regressors (>2 mL/min/1.73 m2/y incline).Histological or genetic evidence of Alport syndrome is not available in all patients.Median follow-up time was 48.2 months of 37 patients (78% male), with a median age of 36 (interquartile range [IQR], 18-47) and a median age of renal replacement therapy commencement (n = 23) of 38 (IQR = 20-52). Renal function changes were found to be heterogeneous overall, intra-individual and within families. Portion of progressors in eGFR 45-60 mL/min/1.73 m2 was 73.7% (SD, 10.3), whereas 23.6% (SD, 11.0) remained stable. Within eGFR 30-45 mL/min/1.73 m2, 45.6% (SD, 7.0) were progressors, whereas 53.4% (SD, 7.4) remained stable. A large portion of eGFR 15-30 mL/min/1.73 m2 patients were stable (54.8%; SD, 8.4), whereas 25.7% (SD, 7.1) progressed and 19.5% (SD, 5.6) regressed.The renal decline in Alport syndrome patients is heterogeneous which has implications for designing clinical trials of interventions.

Project description:BackgroundTenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) has been linked to renal impairment, but the extent to which this impairment is reversible is unclear. We aimed to investigate the reversibility of renal decline during TDF therapy.MethodsCox proportional hazards models assessed factors associated with discontinuing TDF in those with an exposure duration of >6 months. In those who discontinued TDF therapy, linear piecewise regression models estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) slopes before initiation of, during, and after discontinuation of TDF therapy. Factors associated with not achieving eGFR recovery 6 months after discontinuing TDF were assessed using multivariable logistic regression.ResultsWe observed declines in the eGFR during TDF exposure (mean slopes, -15.7 mL/minute/1.73 m(2)/year [95% confidence interval {CI}, -20.5 to -10.9] during the first 3 months and -3.1 mL/minute/1.73 m(2)/year [95% CI, -4.6 to -1.7] thereafter) and evidence of eGFR increases following discontinuation of TDF therapy (mean slopes, 12.5 mL/minute/1.73 m(2)/year [95% CI, 8.9-16.1] during the first 3 months and 0.8 mL/minute/1.73 m(2)/year [95% CI, .1-1.5] thereafter). Following TDF discontinuation, 38.6% of patients with a decline in the eGFR did not experience recovery. A higher eGFR at baseline, a lower eGFR after discontinuation of TDF therapy, and more-prolonged exposure to TDF were associated with an increased risk of incomplete recovery 6 months after discontinuation of TDF therapy.ConclusionsThis study shows that a decline in the eGFR during TDF therapy was not fully reversible in one third of patients and suggests that prolonged TDF exposure at a low eGFR should be avoided.

Project description:BackgroundArteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the vascular access of choice for patients on hemodialysis. Recent evidence suggests that AVF creation may slow estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline. The study objective was to assess the impact of the AVF creation on eGFR decline, after controlling for key confounding factors.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study included adult patients followed in a single-center predialysis clinic between 1999 and 2016. Patients with a patent AVF were followed up to 2 years pre- and post-AVF creation. Estimated GFR trajectory was reported using linear mixed models adjusted for demographic characteristics, comorbidities and use of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone blockade.ResultsA total of 146 patients were studied with a median age 68.7 (60.5-75.4) years and a median eGFR at time of AVF creation of 12.8 (11.3-13.9) mL/min/1.73m2. The crude annual eGFR decline rates were - 3.60 ± 4.00 mL/min/1.73 m2 pre- and - 2.28 ± 3.56 mL/min/1.73 m2 post-AVF, resulting in a mean difference of 1.28 mL/min/1.73 m2 (95% CI 0.49, 2.07). In a mixed effect linear regression model, monthly eGFR decline was - 0.63 (95% CI -0.81, - 0.46; p < 0.001) mL/min/1.73m2/month. The period after AVF creation was associated with a relatively higher eGFR (β 0.94, 95% CI 0.61-1.26, p < 0.001). There was a significant association between follow-up time and the period pre/post AVF (β 0.19, 95% CI 0.16, 0.22; p < 0.001) such that eGFR decline was more attenuated each month after AVF creation.ConclusionsIn this cohort, AVF creation was associated with a significant reduction of eGFR decline. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm this association.

Project description:Objective Evaluating the rate of decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) may help identify patients with occult chronic kidney disease (CKD). We herein report that eGFR fluctuation complicates the assessment of the rate of decline and propose a long-term eGFR plot analysis as a solution. Methods In 142 patients with persistent eGFR decline in a single hospital, we evaluated the factors influencing the rate of eGFR decline, calculated over the long term (≥3 years) and short term (<3 years) using eGFR plots, taking into account eGFR fluctuation between visits. Results The difference between the rate of eGFR decline calculated using short- and long-term plots increased as the time period considered in the short-term plots became shorter. A regression analysis revealed that eGFR fluctuation was the only factor that explained the difference and that the fluctuation exceeded the annual eGFR decline in all participants. Furthermore, the larger the eGFR fluctuation, the more difficult it became to detect eGFR decline using a short-term eGFR analysis. Obesity, a high eGFR at baseline, and faster eGFR decline were associated with larger eGFR fluctuations. To circumvent the issue of eGFR fluctuation in the assessment of the rate of eGFR decline, we developed a system that generates a long-term eGFR plot using all eGFR values for a participant, which enabled the detection of occult CKD, facilitating early therapeutic intervention. Conclusion The construction of long-term eGFR plots is useful for identifying patients with progressive eGFR decline, as it minimizes the effect of eGFR fluctuation.

Project description:IMPORTANCE:The established chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression end point of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or a doubling of serum creatinine concentration (corresponding to a change in estimated glomerular filtration rate [GFR] of ?57% or greater) is a late event. OBJECTIVE:To characterize the association of decline in estimated GFR with subsequent progression to ESRD with implications for using lesser declines in estimated GFR as potential alternative end points for CKD progression. Because most people with CKD die before reaching ESRD, mortality risk also was investigated. DATA SOURCES AND STUDY SELECTION:Individual meta-analysis of 1.7 million participants with 12,344 ESRD events and 223,944 deaths from 35 cohorts in the CKD Prognosis Consortium with a repeated measure of serum creatinine concentration over 1 to 3 years and outcome data. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS:Transfer of individual participant data or standardized analysis of outputs for random-effects meta-analysis conducted between July 2012 and September 2013, with baseline estimated GFR values collected from 1975 through 2012. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES:End-stage renal disease (initiation of dialysis or transplantation) or all-cause mortality risk related to percentage change in estimated GFR over 2 years, adjusted for potential confounders and first estimated GFR. RESULTS:The adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) of ESRD and mortality were higher with larger estimated GFR decline. Among participants with baseline estimated GFR of less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, the adjusted HRs for ESRD were 32.1 (95% CI, 22.3-46.3) for changes of ?57% in estimated GFR and 5.4 (95% CI, 4.5-6.4) for changes of ?30%. However, changes of ?30% or greater (6.9% [95% CI, 6.4%-7.4%] of the entire consortium) were more common than changes of ?57% (0.79% [95% CI, 0.52%-1.06%]). This association was strong and consistent across the length of the baseline period (1 to 3 years), baseline estimated GFR, age, diabetes status, or albuminuria. Average adjusted 10-year risk of ESRD (in patients with a baseline estimated GFR of 35 mL/min/1.73 m2) was 99% (95% CI, 95%-100%) for estimated GFR change of ?57%, was 83% (95% CI, 71%-93%) for estimated GFR change of ?40%, and was 64% (95% CI, 52%-77%) for estimated GFR change of ?30% vs 18% (95% CI, 15%-22%) for estimated GFR change of 0%. Corresponding mortality risks were 77% (95% CI, 71%-82%), 60% (95% CI, 56%-63%), and 50% (95% CI, 47%-52%) vs 32% (95% CI, 31%-33%), showing a similar but weaker pattern. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE:Declines in estimated GFR smaller than a doubling of serum creatinine concentration occurred more commonly and were strongly and consistently associated with the risk of ESRD and mortality, supporting consideration of lesser declines in estimated GFR (such as a 30% reduction over 2 years) as an alternative end point for CKD progression.

Project description:BackgroundAccording to studies by the National Kidney Foundation and Food and Drug Administration, 30% and 40% declines in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) could be used as surrogate endpoints of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). However, the benefits of using these endpoints in diabetic patients remain unclear.MethodsThis cohort study comprised Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes; those with repeated serum creatinine measurements during a baseline period of 2 years (n = 1868) or 3 years (n = 2001) were enrolled. Subsequent risks of ESRD following eGFR declines were assessed.ResultsIn the 2-year baseline analysis, the cumulative prevalence of -20%, -30%, -40%, and -53% changes in eGFR were 23.9%, 11.1%, 6.8%, and 3.7%, respectively. There were 133 cases (7.1%) of subsequent ESRD during a median follow-up period of 6.5 years. In the 3-year baseline analysis, the corresponding proportions were 28.1%, 14.0%, 7.7%, and 3.9%, respectively, with 110 participants (5.5%) reaching ESRD during a median follow-up period of 5.5 years. The adjusted hazard ratios of subsequent ESRD following -53%, -40%, -30%, and -20% changes in eGFR during the 2-year baseline period were 22.9 (11.1-47.3), 12.8 (6.9-23.7), 8.2 (4.3-15.5), and 3.9 (2.2-7.0), respectively when compared with the no changes in eGFR. In the 3-year baseline analysis, the corresponding risks were 29.7 (10.8-81.9), 18.4 (7.6-44.7), 12.8 (5.2-32.2), and 5.4 (2.3-12.8), respectively. In the subgroup analysis, similar trends were observed in patients with macroalbuminuria at baseline.ConclusionsDeclines in eGFR were strongly associated with subsequent risk of ESRD in Japanese type 2 diabetic patients. In addition to 30% and 40% declines, a 20% decline in eGFR over 2 years could be considered as a candidate surrogate endpoint of ESRD in diabetic kidney disease.

Project description:ObjectiveWe aimed to quantify the short-term effect of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), aspirin and paracetamol analgesia dose prescribing on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline in the general practice population.DesignA population-based longitudinal clinical data linkage cohort study.SettingTwo large general practices in North Staffordshire, UK.ParticipantsPatients aged 40 years and over with ≥2 eGFR measurements spaced ≥90 days apart between 1 January 2009 and 31 December 2010 were selected.ExposureUsing WHO Defined Daily Dose standardised cumulative analgesia prescribing, patients were categorised into non-user, normal and high-dose groups.Outcome measureThe primary outcome was defined as a >5 mL/min/1.73 m(2)/year eGFR decrease between the first and last eGFR. Logistic regression analyses were used to estimate risk, adjusting for sociodemographics, comorbidity, baseline chronic kidney disease (CKD) status, renin-angiotensin-system inhibitors and other analgesia prescribing.ResultsThere were 4145 patients (mean age 66 years, 55% female) with an analgesia prescribing prevalence of 17.2% for NSAIDs, 39% for aspirin and 22% for paracetamol and stage 3-5 CKD prevalence was 16.1% (n=667). Normal or high-dose NSAID and paracetamol prescribing was not significantly associated with eGFR decline. High-dose aspirin prescribing was associated with a reduced risk of eGFR decline in patients with a baseline (first) eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m(2); OR=0.52 (95% CI 0.35 to 0.77).ConclusionsNSAID, aspirin and paracetamol prescribing over 2 years did not significantly affect eGFR decline with a reduced risk of eGFR decline in high-dose aspirin users with well-preserved renal function. However, the long-term effects of analgesia use on eGFR decline remain to be determined.

Project description:BackgroundKidney failure is associated with a high burden of morbidity and mortality. Previous studies have raised the possibility that arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation may attenuate eGFR decline. This study aimed to compare eGFR decline in predialysis patients with an AVF, matched to patients oriented toward peritoneal dialysis (PD).MethodsPredialysis patients with an AVF and those oriented toward PD were retrospectively matched using a propensity score. Time zero was defined as the "AVF creation date" for the AVF group and the "date when eGFR was closest to the matched patient's eGFR at AVF creation" for the PD group. Crude and predicted eGFR decline in AVF and PD groups were compared before and after time zero using mixed-effect linear regressions.ResultsIn total, 61 pairs were matched. Crude annual eGFR decline before AVF creation/time zero was -4.1 ml/min per m2 per year in the AVF group versus -5.3 ml/min per m2 per year in the PD group (P=0.75) and after time zero, -2.5 ml/min per m2 per year in the AVF group versus -4.5 ml/min per m2 per year in the PD group (P=0.02). The predicted annual decline decreased from -5.1 ml/min per m2 per year in the AVF group before AVF creation to -2.8 ml/min per m2 per year after (P<0.01), whereas there was no difference in the PD group (-5.5 versus -5.1 ml/min per m2 per year respectively, P=0.41).ConclusionsIn this matched study, AVF creation was associated with a deceleration of kidney function decline compared with a control PD-oriented group. Prospective studies are needed to assess the potential mechanisms between vascular access creation and eGFR slope attenuation.

Project description:BackgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality risk. Elevation of cardiac biomarkers in patients with renal dysfunction is ambiguous in the diagnosis of CVD. The purpose of this study was to investigate the associations between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and cardiac biomarkers, and the influence of renal dysfunction on the cardiac biomarkers.MethodsWe examined the cross-sectional associations of eGFR with cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase (CK), CK-MB, lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH), and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in 812 adults and 215 child. Spearman correlation and logistic regression analysis were performed to evaluate the associations.ResultsFor adults, lower eGFR CKD-EPI had significantly higher cTnI, CK-MB, LDH, HBDH, and BNP. There were negative correlations between eGFRCKD-EPI and cTnI, CK-MB, LDH, HBDH, and BNP. After adjustment for potential confounders, as compared with eGFRCKD-EPI ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 , eGFRCKD-EPI < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 remained associated with a 2.83 (1.08-7.41) [ratio (95% CI)] times higher cTnI and a 6.50 (2.32-18.22) [ratio (95% CI)] times higher HBDH. For child, lower eGFRSchwartz had significant higher CK and CK-MB. There were negative correlations between eGFRSchwartz and CK, and eGFRSchwartz and CK-MB. After adjustment for potential confounders, as compared with eGFRSchwartz ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 , eGFRSchwartz < 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 revealed no significant higher CVD biomarkers.ConclusionReduced eGFR is associated with elevated cTnI and HBDH among adults without clinically evident CVD, but not child.

Project description:Clinical predictors for pacemaker-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM) (e.g., a wide QRS duration and left bundle branch block at baseline) have been reported. However, factors involved in the development of PICM in patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) remain unknown. This study aimed to determine the risk factors for PICM in patients with preserved LVEF. The data of 113 patients (average age: 71.3 years; men: 54.9%) who had echocardiography before and after pacemaker implantation (PMI) among 465 patients undergoing dual-chamber PMI were retrospectively analyzed. Thirty-three patients were diagnosed with PICM (18.0/100 person-years; 95% CI 12.8-25.2). A univariate Cox regression analysis showed that an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≤ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 (HR 3.47; 95% CI 1.48-8.16) and a past medical history of coronary artery disease (CAD) (HR 2.76; 95% CI 1.36-5.60) were significantly associated with the onset of PICM. After adjusting for clinical variables, an eGFR ≤ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 (HR 2.62; 95% CI 1.09-6.29) and a medical history of CAD (HR 2.32; 95% CI 1.13-4.80) were independent risk factors for developing PICM. A medical history of CAD and low eGFR are independent risk factors for PICM in patients with preserved LVEF at baseline. These results could be helpful in predicting a decreased LVEF by ventricular pacing before PMI. Close follow-up by echocardiography is recommended to avoid a delay in upgrading to physiological pacing, such as cardiac resynchronization therapy or conduction system pacing.
